adidas Is a Dark Horse in the World of Technical Outerwear
It’s big-coat season and we’re loving it. The chance to let our love for technicalities and coziness meet in beautiful harmony only arises for about 3 months per year so it’s important to make the most of it. What’s more, with the convergence of outdoor style and contemporary fashion, this year is a particularly exciting one for big coat lovers like us. But while many look to high-end, luxury takes on the style, we’ve realized that adidas winter coats are the most underrated on the market.
From the brand’s Terrex arm which deals in techwear-leaning designs that don’t skimp on style to classic Trefoil-decorated pieces which are ideal for layering, the adidas outerwear lineup is so strong this season that we’re screaming it from the rooftops.
To further our cause, we’ve rounded up 10 of the best adidas coats that exemplify the whole spectrum that’s available from the Three Stripes.
Shop our top 10 adidas coats for winter below.
Terrex MYSHELTER PrimaLoft Padded Jacket
Futuristically clean and made from recycled ocean plastic in collaboration with Parley, this MYSHELTER jacket exemplifies what adidas can do.
Terrex Techrock GORE-TEX Pro Jacket
We can't get over adidas Terrex at the moment. The new vertical is proving to be one of the most exciting arrivals in staple fashion for a long time. It's bringing techwear specials like this GORE-TEX jacket to us for a fraction of their previous prices.
Xploric Down Parka
Sometimes in winter you just need a coat that's halfway between a duvet and a coat. The Xploric Down Parka is just that with clever engineering like the diagonal-fastening pocket flap to keep the wind out.
Terrex MYSHELTER Snow Jacket
When a jacket is made for the slopes but looks good enough to sport in the city, too, you know it's a winner. This piece features two-layer insulation to ensure you're packed in correctly.
Terrex MYSHELTER PrimaLoft Padded Jacket
Aside from the amazing faded blue hue, what's really got us about this jacket is that it's lightweight enough to be a layering asset while providing the warmth of a jacket twice its size.
Big Baffle Down Jacket
Pockets on pockets on pockets. We love pockets. We also, as it happens, love the Big Baffle Jacket from adidas. This piece has seen us through the cold so far and we're excited to test its limits.
Trefoil A33 Jacket
Not strictly within the technical category, this retro-style Trefoil jacket earned a spot in this roundup on style points alone. It's a serious asset when you start layering fits.
Traveer RAIN.RDY Parka
As much as we love a big coat, we understand that some prefer to keep things lightweight and layered. This RAIN.RDY Parka is the perfect top layer to act as a fully waterproof protective shell this season.
Shmoofoil Coach Jacket
Made in partnership with skating legend Mark Gonzales, this Shmoofoil Coach Jacket is another layering number. Look closely and you'll see a signature variation on the Trefoil logo.
Wales Bonner Anorak
Wales Bonner's work with adidas is into its third season and we're a long way from ready for it to end. This season we're treated to this unisex anorak with a perfectly versatile palette.
